Manufactured: 1959        Original Price:

This English portable was 'thrown in' with some other gear I picked up at an auction. It's an interesting insight into early transistor radios in the UK. It uses a circuit board mounted on a metal chassis.  I had to replace the electrolytic caps, but left them physically in place, and 'hid' their modern replacement under the board. The Perspex dial has suffered a lot with the effects of the Aussie climate.
